The AttachmentLoop is a transformative model designed to foster deep connection, secure attachment, and healthy relationships, with a focus on child development and caregiving. Rooted in over 20 years of experience as a foster carer and seven years of applying trauma-informed and attachment-based interventions, this model addresses the ongoing cycles of engagement and repair that are vital to emotional security and resilience in children. The AttachmentLoop integrates key elements of Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) and emphasises the dynamic, evolving nature of attachment. Unlike traditional attachment theories that often focus on early childhood, the AttachmentLoop recognizes the lifelong potential for attachment repair and reinforcement, offering practical strategies for caregivers, support workers, and professionals. This paper outlines the theoretical foundations of the AttachmentLoop, presents case studies demonstrating its application, and discusses its implications for fostering healthier, more resilient relationships in various caregiving environments. The model invites further discussion, refinement, and peer collaboration to support its adoption across diverse caregiving contexts.
